The Alleged Blackmailers Attempt 10
Commit suicide i'm Providence.

Doc Levi Wilson, who became famous by his
suits against Philip Moen, the barbed-wire manu-
facturer of Worcester, attempted to take his life
at the Hotel Dorrance at Providence, Saturday
night, by swallowing laudanum. He has been
stopping at the hotel, occupying room As, since his
bondsIuen gave him up and his wife left him last
winter.
About o o'clock saturday night he entered the
Office OF the hotel, and after holding few min
utes' conversation with the clerk he took his KEY
and started up stairs When he entered his room
he walked directly 10 the mantel, and, after gag.
Ing earnestly at the pictures OF his wife and chill
dren minute or two, kissed them and then
turned their faces TO the wall. He then
pocket and after reading them carefully began
To cry and wiring his hands. few minutes
later he went TO his trunk, took out his dress
suit, clean shirt and collar and cuffs, and laid
them on the bed. He then read a letter he had
received that day from his wife and when he nm
ished ne sat down and wrote reply, also a note to
George Cross. an intimate friend. After placing
the three letters on the bed he walked back and
forth a few minutes and then undressed He
till or his trunk, took out a small bottle and drank
its contents. Y few seconds after he went IN the
speaking-tube, gave the bell sharp ring and told
the clerk 10 come up, with the Injunction that IL
was very Important Only portion Of the last
word however, was uttered. The clerk suspected
something was wrong and rushed up stairs to Will
sons room and found him lying on the floor. VIII
son pointed TO the bed and then fell back, SEEM
ingiy dead
4 young student of the University at New
York volunteered his services, but wilson's pulse
grew fainter and fainter under his treatment Dr.
Abbott was then summoned, and he gave him a
Large dose OF ipecac and a hypOdermic Injection OF
atrophine. After several hours work the phys
lclan considered Wilson out OF danger
The Tote which was addressed to Mr.. Cross read
as follows: s-PleaSe see that my suit which lies
upon the bed is put on me. and that am properly
dressed You Will allow my wife 10 visit the hotel
and see my remains, If she desires"
The causes which led to Wilson's attempted
suicide are poverty and alienation OF his w1fes
anecSionS AT a late hour Sunday night Wilson was
very weak and all he said about his act was that
the pubic would be against him, and many would
say that he tried to take his life so as to cover up
some crime.
